It’s not just a feel-good mantra; it’s how we operate every day. At Cerris, we don’t just build quality construction projects. With each project, gathering, and celebration, we’re building our culture — a culture of respect, accountability, and collective success. It’s one we’ve worked hard to foster, and we can’t wait to share it with you.
Our five core values drive our daily decisions and epitomize who we are as a company and as people. We work day in and day out to do business the right way. With a focus on Teamwork, Quality Craftsmanship, Caring Heart, Entrepreneurial Spirit, and, above all else, Integrity, our values remain at the core of who we are and who we have been from day one.
Our talents and results as a team are beyond what we can accomplish alone.
We are problem solvers, always determined, creative, and curious.
We give time and resources to bettering our communities.
Our core values, woven into all we do, have become the fabric of who we are as a company, the way we do business, and how we interact with one another and with clients. Nominated by their peers, the annual Living the Values awards honor those who embody these principles and carry out our vision for continued success. The following individuals were recognized for exemplifying these core principles and carrying out our vision for continued success through their actions, leadership, and unwavering dedication.
At Cerris, our culture is grounded in something powerful: shared ownership. As an ESOP (Employee Stock Ownership Plan) company, every team member is also an owner. It means we show up with pride, act with purpose, and care deeply about the work we do—because we’re building something we all believe in. We don’t just build structures. We build a company we’re proud to own—together.
Our culture of learning is rooted in continuous improvement, curiosity, and shared knowledge. Through initiatives like Construct U, hands-on field training, and leadership development, we empower our people to keep asking questions, seeking better solutions, and learning from one another. Because when we grow together, we build better—projects, relationships, and futures.
